Artist Statement:

Barry van der Westhuizen’s work stems from observations and mapping. It is the mapping of these observations that places them within a particular landscape of thought and interpretation. Mapping has always been a large part of his art practice, using symbols keys, and markers to create alternative viewing modes of imaginative geography or that of personal geography to help and assist with making sense of the world around him.
